ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS Paper 1 (Indian culture) and Karnataka-specific papers: state festivals like Mysuru Dasara preserve folk art forms and living heritage. The state patronises the festival through the Nada Habba tradition, tableaux and folk performances, which also drive cultural tourism and local livelihoods. The way forward lies in sustainable crowd and elephant management, wider documentation of folk arts and heritage-linked tourism.
